Rated 5 out of 5 by Outdoorgardener Garden Sink
This is a really nice unit. It is actually the second one we've installed. The last one had to be removed when our house was painted so we decided to just get a new one since we used the last one so much. We like the set up and the durability. Installation is fine as long as you follow the step by step directions. We like the sliding work surface on top when the sink is not in use. It's a really handy item.

Perfect for all outdoor activities requiring cleanup. I love it for rinsing my hands while grilling. I had one at my house that I just sold and the buyer was in love with it so I purchased another one for my new house. I love this!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Gardener311 Great garden sink.
It is a little complicated to mount. I had someone that knows about carpentry put it on a back splash board made of plexiglass so it would be easier to hang up. It's a great looking sink and so practical. It's a perfect sink to have outside to wash up something quick or just wash your hands and garden tools. It also has a nice finish look when it is closed. I hung it up on a wide patio square pole.

Rated 5 out of 5 by LosAngelesMom Great Sink!!!
We have two young boys and no "utility" sink in garage or laundry room. This sink is a fantastic alternative. We mounted it outside by the driveway; the kids love having a sink for "science experiments". Mom loves that the kids can clean up outside before coming in the house. The only complaint we have is the connectors on the sink only come on the right side. We would have like the option to choose left, as this would have been more compatable with our hose hook up. Otherwise, it's perfect!

This item disappeared from the market for a while and I'm glad to see it back. Assembly was fairly routine, although some of the parts were a tight fit -- a good thing from a quality standpoint. My only minor disappointment is that proper sizing of lag bolts and washers for final installation was a challenge, as the mounting slots appear to be of non-standard size. From a DIY perspective, instructions to rely on "hardware professionals" for mounting advice was a cop-out. All in all, however, this outdoor garden sink appears to be a quality unit that will do the job.

Rated 5 out of 5 by sailboat great outdoor sink.
So easy to install. I use it to clean barbaque pans and utensils, washing out flower pots.
My husband takes out the grates and also cleans them in this sink.
Not gloppy and great for outdoor use.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Ledra Exactly what I was looking for
I wanted this product when I saw it last season even though I had no where to put it. This year I was so pleased to see it again and have the perfect place for it. If you're going to get a stationary hose reel you might as well spend a few more dollars and get one with such great features. I looks great, was easy to install and has so many functional attributes- it is well worth the money. I am very happy with my pruchase - but bewarned- follow the assembly instructions - it will, as always, save you alot of headache.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Millie Just buy it !!
This is the best garden accessory ever! I have had one of these for many years, and it is a Godsend to have running, draining water in the yard...for garden chores, hand washing, etc. I broke it...forgot to drain before winter freeze, and spent last year with out one.
This keeps everyone from tracking dirt into the house every time they need a sink.

Rated 5 out of 5 by MarylandGardner I really needed this product
I had seen this product online several years ago and when I tried to order it was out of stock. We do a lot of yard work and do not have a utility sink so this product is perfect for us. We were at a little nursery buying some plants and they had a new one mounted on the outside of one of their greenhouses. I Googled it when we got home and Improvements had it so we ordered it immediately. It was easy to install and I added a two hose valve to the existing hose bib and we were in business! It is most convenient and prevents us from tracking mud, mulch and grass into the house.

My kids bought me this sink years ago, I still use it and love it. Now that my son has a family and a yard I wanted to get him the same one for Father's Day. I found that the manufacturer was out of business. Then...there it was on Improvements! I ordered it, it came in 2 days ahead of schedule and my son loves it.
If I had anything at all to suggest - it should say "does not include mounting hardware" - wasn't a big deal, but I would have bought that ahead of time for him.

The outdoor sink is excellent. the faucet leaked upon arrival however, I was sent a new sink and it was great. Instead of mounting on wall I mounted on an old cast iron Tredle sewing machine base for portability. The setup works great is portable and my wife loves it. An Excellent product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Rocketman Handy for clean up after yard work
This is a very handy item for clean up after yard work. Installation took about 35 minutes. I would say that I am semi- to experienced when it comes to home improvements and DYI projects and I had no problems. If you are mounting to a brick/rock wall/surface you will need a masonary drill bit. Had to purchase/ install a seperate single short piece of tubing for drain to keep water from draining directly on to area under sink. VERY happy with this item

Rated 5 out of 5 by HANDYGRANDY GREAT PRODUCT!!!
Unlike some of the other reviews stating it was a 2 person job, I was able to assemble & mount to stucco all by myself. It helped to support the unit at the correct height while marking the holes. I happened to use a planter, but you can use anything. The most difficult part was attaching the hose to the bottom of the faucet. That took a lot of strength & conviction! Also, the hole covers do not "snap" in as they should, and I had to play around with that in order to get them to stay. Tool tightened 2 hose connections very well & no leaks! LOVE IT!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bernieburn We love the Outdoor Garden Sink!!
I debated for a week prior to purchasing. I should have bought sooner! This was a great purchase and was very easy to install. I attached it to my brick wall with masonry anchors. It has meet all of my expectations. I read reviews that mentioned missing parts but mine came with all parts included and was in perfect condition. This will make the perfect addition to my patio. Now I can wash my hands by the barbecue grill. No need to go inside, yay! BTW, no leaks. I used teflon tape like for plumbing.
Don't hesitate! Purchase!

I have been wanting this little sink for years. Finally found it in stock and just love it. It took me a little time to get it hooked up (had to buy a connecting house, and a brick bit for the drill), but now that all that is done I really love it!!!! It has great pressure and drains well. I love the little drain plug and the soap indention space. It is a wonderful addition to my garden area.

The hose hanger is designed to hold a 50 ft hose but it is not automatic. You have to hand wind the hose onto the hanger. As long as your sink is firmly and properly attached to the wall it will hold the hose and several small items on the sliding tops with no problem. Just remember it is made from plastic so it can't hold a great deal of weight at one time.

The plastic part that goes into small line instantly broke when trying to position in place. This is the main water line connection with a small plastic connector that goes into the small plastic tube. It snapped off with very little pressure, poorly designed piece, this should be metal. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement ASAP?

Happened to me - you need a garden hose to 1/4" ID barbed connector - which I could not find. I was able to rig a solution:

My water intake broke - i.e. the plastic flange connection broke right in the clear plastic hose that connects to the manifold. I repaired it with the following:

0. Disconnect the manifold, pull out faucet/basin assembly1. Clip off part of hose that had the broken plastic flange inside.2. Connect hose to a brass hose barb 1/4" ID x 3/8" MIP (Watts LFA-193).3. Connect that piece to a 1/2" MIP x 3/8" FIP brushing(Watts #LFA-828) -- I used teflon tape for a tight seal.4. Drill out bottom hole in manifold to a 1" hole5. Put the above two piece connection through the hole, and apply teflon tape to the threads6. Attach to a swivel garden hose adapter (Watts #LFA-660) and tighten.7. Attach garden hose intake and turn on water. I have the intake hose connected to a shut-off at the main connection and only open it a tiny bit, enough to ensure water flows but doesn't blast out.

It took about $16 in parts at Home Depot, which is what Improvements credited me for my trouble.
